Hi all!  Here are some new pictures of Rayna.  She has been very busy the last couple of months.  Since our last update, she has really mastered crawling and keeping Mommy and Daddy busy as she gets into EVERYTHING.  Rayna has also learned to stand up, while holding onto things.  She has even attempted standing on her own, with no luck, its a good thing we have soft carpet.  She also likes to walk with the help of Mommy and Daddy. Rayna is eating more solids and seems to enjoy all foods so far.  We can't believe how fast she's growing and developing.  Our Rayna just turned 8 months this past Saturday (Feb 25th).  Enjoy the new pics and we will be sure to update more often.

On November 27th 2005, Rayna Ellen Anne Warnell was baptized into the United Church.  It was a very special day for Toby and I as we were welcomed by fellow parishioners and joined by many family and friends for Rayna's Baptism.  What made the day extra special was that Rayna wore the same dress I wore for my Baptism 28 years ago!  She looked just beautiful.  As always we took many pictures of the day.  Be sure to check them out. 

Well, its been a busy month and lots of pictues were taken.  Although it doesn't take long to download, I just never seem to do it as often as I want.  Anyway, I got them done now. 

Here are the most recent pics of Rayna, for the month of November (and a few from October).  Some of these pics include Rayna's trip to Barrie and her first taste of solids.  Don't forget, you can read the captions I've written by clicking the arrow under the picture to the right.  This enlarges the picture and then you can read the captions too.  Let me know if you have no idea what I'm talking about. lol

Enjoy!!!

 

Trick or Treat Everyone!

 

Tonight Rayna got to experience her first Halloween, and what an experience it was.  The day started early with pumpkin shopping.  Rayna picked out her own pumpkin, not knowing what she was getting herself "into".  LOL...please see photos!  After lots of picture taking, Rayna was dressed and ready to go "trick or treating" at all her grandparents houses.  On route, Rayna experience another first...a car accident.  We were rear ended while at a red light.  After observation from the paramedics, everyone checked out ok, and off we were to get some candy and show off our little "Princess".

 

We hope everyone enjoyed their Halloween...hope you enjoy the pictures!

 

 

Finally able to download some new pictures of my beautiful baby.  Rayna is just over 3 months now and just perfect.  Lots of giggles and smiles this last month or so, as well as a huge stubborn streak...I wonder where she gets that?...must be the "Warnell" side.  LOL! 

Rayna  is really developing her own little personality.

 

We also started swimming Sept 29th.  Rayna seems to really enjoy the water, although I don't think she enjoyed going underwater at first, but  she was fine after.

 

Anyway, enjoy the pictures.  I will try to download some more soon.
